景观保护与受胁景观红皮书

地球上大多数景观是自然过程与人类文化过程交互作用的产物，是长期适应和演化形成的稳定类型。它们可以作为协调人类与环境相互关系的模型，具有十分重要的科学、文化和示范价值。但近几十年来，随着人口的快速增长，新技术的采用，世界各地的景观正受到严重威胁，使它们面临退化，有些走向消失。保护和抢救一部分有价值的景观已成为当前的紧迫任务。 国际上于1991年在 IUCN 的 CESP 内成立了“景观保护工作组”，制定了“景观保护计划”，接着在意大利和英国分别举行了两次景观保护专题讨论会，并在希腊克里特岛开展了事例研究。现正着手编制事例研究地点的《受胁景观红皮书》和世界范围的《濒危景观红色名录》。

Landscape conservation and Red Book for threatened landscape

Most of the landscapes on earth are products of mutual actions of natural processes and human culturalprocesses, and are stable types of long-term adaptation as well as evolutionary formation. They may betaken as model for coordinating the interrelationships between human beings and their environment, sothey are of important scientific, cultural and pilot significances. Nevertheless, during the recent decades,along with the rapid growth of human population and use of new technologies, various landscapes of theworld are severely threatened. They are confronting deterioration, and some of them are on the way toextinction, it is an urgent current task to conserve and rescue parts of the valuable landscapes. In 1991,within the CESP of IUCN, established a Working Group on Landscape Conservation and worked out aLandscape Conservation Program. Two workshops on landscape conservation, being held separately inLtaly and England, were followed. A case study was also engaged in the Create of Greece. Now, the RedBooks for Threatened Landscapes and Red Lists for Endangered Landscapes have been set about.
